Details

The screening of Romeo Castellucci’s monumental trilogy staged at the Avignon Festival 2008 opens the series of events celebrating The Divine Comedy on the 700th anniversary of Dante’s death. Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso, radically reinterpreted by the renowned Italian, were the main event and shock of the festival.

“To read, reread, expand, drum into your head, study The Divine Comedy in detail, only to forget it afterwards. To absorb it with you skin. And let it dry on you like a wet shirt,” was the principle that guided the director in his work with the text.

Surrounded by the music of the American innovator composer Scott Gibbons, Castellucci is not just relaying visionary images but striving to “be” Dante, to start a journey into the unknown from this point. Through a synthesis of arts, Castellucci, in his directing style, brings the viewer not an illusion but a real experience. Dante’s worlds become as tangible as possible in his interpretation.

The audience of Dom Radio will see all parts of the triptych recorded by ARTE.
